Default Are you SURE she's not a Black Lab mix???

I'm just venting.....But I'm going to pop a gasket if one more person asks me this!?

Are all black GSD's TRULY that rare?? I find it hard to believe.

Then, after they ask and I tell them, "No, she's just a shepherd...no Lab." they look at me like I have two heads and respond with, "Really!? I've never seen one before."

Ack! Anyone else ever get this?

I was always told something my entire life when things got to me that was to "consider the source". I mean come on how can that NOT come in to play when you look at those pictures. If something thinks there is anything but shepherd there then well..... consider the source lol obviously they aren't to bright or know anything about dogs apparently.
